Activity itinerary

ACE Basin

  • 1h
At the heart of one of the East Coast’s largest undeveloped estuaries, the ACE Basin National Wildlife Refuge protects sweeping marshes, tidal creeks, and quiet hardwood forests. This is one of the best places in the Lowcountry to spot herons, egrets, bald eagles, and even the occasional alligator along the water’s edge. Boardwalks and scenic overlooks make wildlife viewing easy, while old rice fields and historic structures hint at centuries of human history layered into the landscape. It’s a peaceful, nature-rich stop that rewards slow exploration.

Angel Oak Tree

  • 1h
Standing over 65 feet tall with branches stretching in every direction, the Angel Oak Tree is one of the Lowcountry’s most unforgettable natural landmarks. Estimated to be 300-400 years old, this remarkable tree creates a sweeping canopy of shade and an atmosphere that feels calm, timeless, and awe-inspiring. Visitors come to admire its immense limbs, unique shape, and the quiet beauty of the setting. It’s an iconic stop that offers both a memorable photo opportunity and a chance to experience one of the South’s great natural treasures.

Charles Towne Landing State Historic Site

  • 1h
Step into the place where English settlers first established the Carolina colony in 1670. As you wander oak-lined paths and reconstructed palisades, you’ll gain an immersive glimpse into the region’s earliest beginnings. Interpretive exhibits and living-history demonstrations bring daily colonial life into focus, while The Adventure, a 17th-century trading ship replica, shows how settlers travelled and traded along the coast. Blending natural beauty with rich storytelling, Charles Towne Landing is an essential stop for understanding Charleston’s foundation.

Drayton Hall

  • 1h
Drayton Hall stands as one of the best-preserved plantation homes in the South, offering an unaltered look at 18th-century architecture and craftsmanship. The house remains untouched by modern additions, allowing visitors to appreciate original brickwork, elegant design, and the history that unfolded here. Peaceful riverfront grounds and thoughtful interpretive displays illuminate the complex stories of the Drayton family and the enslaved people who lived and worked on the plantation. The result is a powerful and beautifully preserved window into early colonial life.

Old Sheldon Church Ruins

  • 1h
Old Sheldon Church Ruins is worth the stop for its dramatic columns, weathered brick walls, and peaceful setting beneath moss-draped oak trees. It’s the kind of place that feels both beautiful and reflective, with just enough mystery to make it unforgettable. If you enjoy history, atmosphere, or simply great photo stops, this is one you won’t want to pass by.

Savannah National Wildlife Refuge

  • 1h
Stretching along the Savannah River, this vast refuge protects thousands of acres of freshwater marshes, bottomland forests, and wildlife-rich wetlands. It provides prime habitat for alligators, migratory birds, and a range of coastal species. Scenic pull-offs along the wildlife drive make it easy to spot herons, egrets, and basking gators, while trails wind through restored rice fields, reminders of the region’s plantation history. Sunrise and sunset reveal the refuge at its most atmospheric, offering some of the Lowcountry’s best wildlife viewing. If you enjoy scenic drives, quiet nature, and memorable wildlife viewing, this side trip is well worth it.
